▲Hightower is a country that is located in the Northeast of the map. It is a relatively new nation, though there is an older version of it that no longer exists. The name and borders of the country have been reestablished by different players and a new government has been formed. The government is a direct democracy with the founding principles of kindness, neutrality, and self-sufficiency. Foreign policy is centered around diplomacy and being neutral in conflicts so as to act as a third party that can host peace talks. Domestic policy is centered around individual rights, encouraging citizens to build up their own areas as they see fit. New members are welcome, though such matters are determined by a vote.

Hightower's government is a direct democracy with no formal leader. Every citizen has a vote on all matters deemed worthy to call a vote on. Such matters include, but are not limited to, alliances, joint projects, trade, and anything any citizen would like to propose. The person who proposes a vote votes only as a tie-breaker in that matter and is responsible for organizing the vote. In addition, all citizens have the right to private property where they may build and do whatever they please. Every citizen is entitled to use their 20 faction claims however they see fit, should it be to protect their private property or to contribute to the protection of public buildings.▼

=== Self-sufficiency ===
The people of Hightower should strive to be able to provide all necessary resources for themselves. Doing this is meant to help build a sense of unity and cooperation among our citizens. This is not meant to discourage trade in any way with other nations, in fact it is encouraged as a means to foster good relations with other nations as well.
